The information on the dashboard is displayed in accordance with user’s roles and permissions;

We were developing 3 separate stores to be run off of one internal system, and this module provided all the features we needed.

Allowing ourselves as administrators to restrict user access to the other stores really simplified the whole process and saved us an abundance of time it would have cost to set up 3 different databases over 3 different installations.

Would highly recommend to anyone who was at the point of expanding their network, but still wanted everything kept under one roof.

Review by Ashley (Posted on 7/17/13)

Module is good and does what it says will, however it took me hours to get this working. Advice, read the installation guide even if you have been working with Magento for years. I dislike the pricing rules imposed by aitoc, no other developer seems to do this (i.e. Charge by number of products or users etc). Ensure you enable the cache option once installed, My server nearly had a meltdown with class rewrites until I noticed this was causing the issue and then load resumed to normal.

The API does not work when using this module and complains about Call to a member function getRole() on a non-object so I have now had to disable this module until this is resolved. Submitted support ticket and awaiting response. On the whole, the module is pretty clever for the admin interface and does what it says, but the above points really really let the module and company down. I have never had so many issues with a Paid For module and have developed probably 50 of my own so like to think I know what I am doing....

We purchased this extension to use on an expansive multiple storefront project and I was blown away with how simple to use and powerful this extension is! We only had a single problem that was resolved by AITOC's AMAZING support team within 24 hours of submitting a support ticket. These guys are number one in the extension game and I would tell anyone that is looking for an extension to use these guys. THANK YOU!

As a developer I use a lot of Aitoc modules, they all work great. But what is even better, is the great, fast and effective support we've received after a small problem that occurred in one of the more advanced and customized Magento installations.

Absolutly 5/5 stars

Review by jeet roy (Posted on 10/4/12)

Nice Module.. but how can we do order management?
There is no step given in the user manual for order management.

AITOC: Order management restriction can be set the same way Catalog restriction is set in the User Guide. You just need to check Order section in Role Resources.

Awesome technical support...

Module worked great in our site, very handy... today (25/05/12) we've experienced a problem in our site that didnt even came from AITOC extension (came from an extension from another company) but our log pointed the error to AITOC extension.. they fixed everything and saved our day (if it werent for their technical support we could lose at least 400 orders)

So i cannot thank AITOC devellopers enought for their help and attention

The most trusted support that we've meet until this day
